Well-being, nature, and meditation amidst the pastures of Val d'Ayas
The YogaMonterosa Festival is a travelling event dedicated to well-being and connection with nature, which every summer animates various municipalities in Val d'Ayas and its surroundings, at the foot of the Monte Rosa massif. Organised by the association The Hub Ayas, the festival also brings its practices to Challand-Saint-Anselme (Province of Aosta).
The Challand-Saint-Anselme stage offers a day of free outdoor activities: from yoga and meditation practices to qigong and tai chi, as well as forest bathing and nature trekking. An opportunity to slow down and find balance between body and mind, immersed in the valley's landscapes.
The 2026 edition, the eleventh, revolves around the theme Satya — a Sanskrit term referring to truth, authenticity, and reality. This guiding principle accompanies the various stages of the festival, enriched by meetings and moments of reflection.
The strength of YogaMonterosa lies in its travelling nature: each stage involves a different municipality, enhancing the places and communities of Val d'Ayas. In Challand-Saint-Anselme, supported by the municipal administration, the day of practices also becomes a way to rediscover charming corners of the territory with a focus on well-being and sustainability.
The Challand-Saint-Anselme stage of the YogaMonterosa Festival 2026 is scheduled for Sunday, August 2nd. The edition, the eleventh, has as its theme Satya - the value of truth and is organised by the association The Hub Ayas.
All activities are free. The stage is supported by the municipality of Challand-Saint-Anselme.
